PREPARATIONFORUSE
Remove The Transit Card
This personal CD player is shipped with a dummy CD ‘transit card’ inside the CD
compartment. The purpose of this card is to prevent the laser from moving during
shipment of the product. This card must be removed before using the CD player.
Slide the OPEN switch to the right to unlock the CD door. Remove the ‘transit card’
from the player and discard it.
Power Sources
This personal CD player is designed to operate on two “AA” batteries, not included.
Use a well known brand of Alkaline batteries for longest life and best performance.
This player can also be operated by with an optional AC/DC converter/adapter, not
included. If you decide to purchase an optional AC/DC adapter the specification
must be as follows:
Input: 120V 60Hz AC
Output: 4.5V DC, 500 mA.
Plug: Female Type with Positive Center, “UL” Listed.
You may also purchase a “Universal” type AC/DC adapter which allows you to
select the required output voltage and plug polarity, and normally includes multiple
plug sizes to fit most brands of equipment. Always look for the “UL” listing mark
when you purchase an adapter.

Installing The Batteries
NOTE: The battery compartment is located on the bottom cabinet.
1.) Press the battery door locking tab in the
direction of the ‘Arrow’ to open the battery
door. Lift the door upward as shown.
2.) Insert two alkaline “AA” batteries in the
battery compartment. Be sure to observe
the polarity markings engraved in the
battery compartment.
If the batteries are inserted incorrectly the
unit will not work.
3.) Close the battery door, and push the battery door downward until you hear a
‘click’ sound to lock the door again.
4.) Close the CD door.
Replacing The Batteries
When the battery symbol appears in the display the batteries are becoming
weak and should be replaced.Always replace both batteries at the same time with
new fresh alkaline batteries. Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of
batteries together.
If the display remains blank when you press the (Play/Pause) button, the
batteries are completely dead. Replace them immediately. If dead batteries are
left inside the battery compartment for a long period of time they may leak and
cause damage to the unit, and such damage or corrosion from leaking batteries is
not covered by your warranty.
